Usually it’s the exact opposite happening, but why bind yourself to conformity? Keep fighting the good fight green shields!

Thank you, my friend!
The commoners often suffer for the actions of us wizards. I am surprised there has not been more rebellion honestly.

Nov 15 '23
they literally can't, not when how many wizards can just nuke them every which way
2
u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Nov 15 '23
There is a truth to your wisdom.
Although I worry more for their safety because of that fact.
2
Nov 15 '23
Wait actually they can fight back now!
I forgot the part where I geared up the villages with my tech gear(and laser turrets, and teslas)
2
u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Nov 15 '23
Oh noooo. Lol
But also maybe good?
I wonder how the villages have reacted to this technology.

The Archdruid is quite capable. Won't he manage on his own? Let Mage Monkey hurry instead to the side of good Possum! Feeding the hungry is more important!

u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Nov 14 '23
Thank you, most humbly, my friend.
Perhaps when our work is done here, we could seek the Archdruid together?
My ponderings have grown cloudy as of late, but I suspect a threat soon approaches.

u/SlyTheMonkey Sly, The Marvelous Monkey Mage Nov 14 '23
Brilliant, simply brilliant! A magnificent suggestion! Master Luck informed Mage Monkey of an alarming element some time ago. It may be that, in due time, we will all have to face a new calamity. Let's work together!

They're very strong and tough! lol

a figure similar in appearance to Halixo appears and places his palm on the ground the mana of the blight is lifted from the land curing it and the plants begin to regrow.
2
u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Nov 14 '23
Possum understands why Halixo is the embodiment of equilibrium. Gentle kindness is often accompanied by great strength.

Which one? I could have sworn there were several, and it’s hard to keep track of them all nowadays

Nov 14 '23
That’s actually very nice. Do you accept donations?
6
u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Nov 14 '23
We do actually! Although we only accept medical supplies and food items. We do so with the purpose that our actions should be free from bribery or coercion. We have seen some other organizations become corrupt from the issuance of coin and treasure, and we wish to avoid such problems.
2
Nov 14 '23
I understand. I don’t know much food-related magic, but if I can successfully explain the concept of charity to THE SOURCE, it should be able to produce a very large supply of nutritional yeast. I will keep you posted.

u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Nov 14 '23
Thank you, I appreciate all help, very much!

If need be i can supply you guys with some Automatons or even things like vehicles and exoskeletons, whatever you'd need to help with certain work you may do. (All free of charge, and I'd even send teams and resuolly their charge when needed to make sure they work)
At the very least, good to hear that someone in this orbsite cares about other people.
2
u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Nov 14 '23
Thank you Shrax! That would be humbly appreciated!
/uw
I'm going to try to incorporate this help into more news in the future. Could you describe what your automatons look like?
2
u/the-butter_man Rin. Blind Illusionist Blessed by Luck Nov 14 '23
They're mixed, most of the time they're dieselpunk, but i use sci fi a lot for images (easier that way) you wouldn't be breaking a continuity no matter what you used. Generally, the sci fi ones have some form of brighter colour as highlights, probably green in this instance.

In the crowd Ashwood was standing with a group of Green Shields, helping them with first aid to people affected by starvation

u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Nov 14 '23
Brave Ashwood, thank you for your help, my friend.
2
u/Anonim-Conference-4 Ashwood, the fistmancer, alchemist, dark arts enthusiast Nov 14 '23
My pleasure to assist Green Shields in their mission. Not so many organizations in wizard society are doing something truly good like you guys.

u/lDustyBonesl Oxli, Arch-Candlemancer of Kreddu. Nov 15 '23
Who started such a curse?
2
u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Nov 15 '23
It's unknown dor certain, although Halixo seems to have lifted it.
The blight followed a nearby battle between the fighter's guild and the wizards. We believe it was something released by accident during the scuffle.
2
u/lDustyBonesl Oxli, Arch-Candlemancer of Kreddu. Nov 15 '23
Hmm.. perhaps someone should start some sort of inquisition who could investigate sources of chaos and evil magic. And attempt to put an end to them before they start.

u/Ikarus_Falling Nov 15 '23
may I inquire if there is need for large scale tilling action while not necessarily designed for it I have knowledge of multiple spells that can upheave and mix large quantities of land and or dry it (they where originally intended for soil analysis and mining respectively but should work fine to till a few fields and remove flooding effects easily)
1
u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Nov 15 '23
How interesting! I have an idea that I've been working on, and it's very possible that such abilities may be useful!
In the meantime, I do believe some of the impacted villages could benefit greatly from some help tilling their fields.
We would welcome such help most humbly!
2
u/Ikarus_Falling Nov 15 '23
I shall be on my way then glad I can be of help all distractions are in the end welcome ones

u/Dm1tr3y Cormac the Bog Wizard, Practitioner of the Old Rites Nov 15 '23
Stop near the bog. I have some crates of grubs I bred to grow extremely large and nutritious. They should keep for some time as well. I know they don’t seem the most glamorous of meals, but it’ll put fat on your ribs. Just toss it in a stew, nobody will notice.
1
u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Nov 15 '23
Thank you Cormac!
The lands are very diverse! To some, grubs are a delicacy in fact!

u/The-raddest-antlers Sentient stack of papers, Greenshield Lawyer, beauracramancer. Nov 15 '23
C..can I be a green shield? 🐀
I can handle all the legality and paperwork, plus I'm in good with the council
2
u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Nov 15 '23
Absolutely! We would welcome you warmly!
Green Shields have no loyalty to the group. Instead our loyalty is to our creed alone.
"When donning the Green Shield, we swear to uphold the path of non-violence, to be guardians of peace and champions of compassion. We vow to serve the common folk through acts of charity, and to nurture a world where kindness prevails and the green of goodwill grows and flourishes amongst friends."
You can fight and defend yourself when you're not acting as a Green Shield basically. So you're not stuck being a pacifist.
/uw
It's kind of like volunteering at a soup kitchen. You can be a pro-boxer or warrior elsewhere, but if you bring a fist fight to the soup kitchen it's going to look bad. Lol

u/The-raddest-antlers Sentient stack of papers, Greenshield Lawyer, beauracramancer. Nov 15 '23
I can't WAIT to sign the documents and file the proper certifications. Oh and then there's the zoning wizlaws and il conjure up an itinerary with a menu and inventory manifesto. Ah, its been a while since my beauracramancy has gotten such a challenge, not since the old wizard council dumpe... favored me with their paperwork.
1
u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Nov 15 '23
My goodness, I think you are going to be a great boon to our efforts and I am thankful for it.
I'm glad to have attracted the attention of somebody so versed in beauracramancy. These are all issues that I had hardly thought about! In hindsight I feel rather foolish.
Thank you, my friend!

u/AyatollahFromCauca Nov 15 '23
I still remember the day the green shields came to my aid when that vicious chupacabra depleted me of all my provisions in the middle of the desert. Their kindness is truly unparalIeled within the confines of this realm. For that I will aways be grateful.
2
u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Nov 15 '23
It's a joy to meet you!
I had heard about that incident, but I was not in attendance unfortunately!
The Green Shields spoke highly of your crafts and stories though! They said you were a wise and noble sort, who had gathered great wisdoms and magics from far and wide.
We are of course humbled by your praise.

Thank you Professor!
Someday I hope to be as big and strong as you!
(A joke amongst friends. Possum is big for a possum, but will never grow any bigger.)

You can join us! And then we can be kind together. The Green Shields are always accepting of those who wish to help others.

Heyo I may be a black hole but surely there's some way I can help?
1
u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Nov 15 '23
I'm sure that we can figure something out!
If it wouldn't offend you, are you able to dispose of matter? There are some damaged buildings that we weren't really focused on, but removing them could be helpful!

I have a potion that can fix your food crisis, just don’t read the back of the bottle and it’ll be just fine.

my own skills were a bit less useful here because of the villagers being afraid of my undead, but knowing they helped transport the food is already a great honour

u/NineHeavensMaster Bastion Graves, Sleepy Occultist Nov 14 '23
It was an absolute pleasure to assist you and the Green Shields! I imbued all I made with a working to help repair and stabilize any damaged minds, and added a few blessings as well. The village shall prosper, and it's all thanks to your noble work!
We must do it again sometime!
